Gov’t Mule frontman Warren Haynes has returned with a new solo album entitled “Million Voices Whisper.” The powerhouse guitarist and vocalist’s first solo effort in nearly a decade is a special one with guest appearances from Derek Trucks, Lukas Nelson, Jamey Johnson, and more.

Forq’s new album, “Big Party,” is perfectly named. The funky set of songs not only evoke good vibes, they’re created by a huge cast of musicians. At the center of the party is Forq leader Henry Hey.

Get ready for a sonic shindig. Forq has announced a new album called Big Party that brings all good vibes. A press release describes its as “sonically wild and wonderfully funky” with a “thrift shop’s worth of zany cultural references.”

Warren Haynes is ramping things up with his solo band this fall with a new album and a tour to boot. “Million Voices Whisper” has yet to have an exact release date, but the guitarist/vocalist stated he hopes to have it out in late September or early October.

Gov’t Mule bassist Kevin Scott’s discography is a long list that includes albums with John McLaughlin, Jimmy Harring, Gary Husband, FORQ, Donny McCaslin, Col Bruce Hampton, and many more. However, he’s just released his first album as a leader with the self-titled debut from WAXpaper.

In our interview with Gov’t Mule’s Kevin Scott last year, he shared he was working an album with his solo project, WAXpaper. Now he’s revealed the project’s self-titled debut will be released in April.

The mighty Gov’t Mule formed in 1994, and they’re celebrating their three decades as a band next year with a tour. The first leg of the “30 Years Strong” tour will see Warren Haynes, Matt Abts, Danny Louis, and Kevin Scott covering the West Coast and Southwest.

When Gov’t Mule announced they had a new bass player, I don’t think there could have been a better fit than Kevin Scott. We caught up with Kevin to talk about Gov’t Mule, his new label, Colonel Bruce Hampton, and more.

After releasing a new album, Gov’t Mule unveiled a new set of tour dates to share with their fans. The “Peace… Like A River” tour will kick off on September 13th following their “Dark Side of the Mule” Pink Floyd tribute summer tour.

Gov’t Mule has big news this month with a lineup change and a new album. The group announced that bassist Jorgen Carlsson has left the fold after fifteen years.

Felton Guitars has announced the King Bass, a signature model for Kevin Scott. Scott worked with luthier Jon Levister to create what he calls “an original take on a classic meets modern tone.”

Guitar whiz Jimmy Herring has created a new band called The 5 of 7 that revolves around Atlanta-based musicians who were connected with the late Col. Bruce Hampton. Bassist Kevin Scott is part of the lineup.
